Clarification

Hi, I would like if HR manager Ms. Michelle Shivak contact for a job. Just want to confirm here, is it exactly a scam? Thank you for any clarification!
  • Hi Viv1 - it's hard for us to determine a name to be legitimate. I will send you a message

  • First of all I can't see any Telus VP, such as Lisa Mack, sending anyone an email as part of the hiring process. That's just not now things work. Telus also would NOT be using some relatively little known chat app like GroupMe as part of the hiring process. It reeks of a scam so very much.

    There was another post on here not long ago with that name on it. It was determined to be a scam and the scammer just pulled a random HR person off of Google to make it look legit.

     

    For some reason that post is missing. The question comes down to how is the supposed person from Telus contacting you? Is it a phone number with a 437 area code? Is it by email? Are they asking you to take a course on some third party website?
